# dots
My dotfiles.
Currently in the process of migrating to Wayland using the [Niri](https://github.com/yalter/niri) compositor.
The configurations for dwm and other X11 utilities are still here for now.
## Installation
Install [chezmoi](https://chezmoi.io):
```
# pacman -S chezmoi
```
Clone then apply these dotfiles:
```
chezmoi init dogeystamp/dotfiles --apply
```
After, install some packages. A list is provided in the `programs` file.
This list encompasses all packages needed for a full system, including utilities and games.
Feel free to pick and choose which packages you want.
A script is also provided with `programs-python` to install Python packages via pipx.
Package availability and their names **differ based on the distribution**: these are for Arch Linux and its derivatives.
Some features are enabled or disabled based on a "system profile":
chezmoi will prompt you for a choice.
### Notes
- The `input` section of `.config/niri/config.kdl` provides changes I like, such as swapping escape and caps lock, which you should remove if you don't need.
- My qutebrowser configuration emphasizes privacy over usability, and you might need to edit it to suit your needs if you want to use it.
- Neovim plugins are installed [via git submodule](https://hiphish.github.io/blog/2021/12/05/managing-vim-plugins-without-plugin-manager/)
rather than through conventional means. This has less complexity than a plugin manager since I already manage all my dotfiles under Git.
Plugins are declared in `.gitmodules`.
